:shock: :shock: :shock:

Ando somehow maneouvered Bails into the side, that will test Bailey's loyalty if (when) Ando is punted!

Not a bad side but hardly awe-inspiring. Noddy I like at half but the media will whip up a storm on Gower's behalf.

Good to see Kimmorley get the halfback spot, and it should stir some sh*t in the other forums. :lol: And go Bails!!!!

 

[Marduk]

Not a bad looking side, it's good to see some fresh faces in the mix.

I hope like hell Phil Bailey stays at the Sharks beyond next season. But what are the odds in these crazy times.

 

[Illegal Immigrant]

At least CA is consistent in his selection of both the National team and the Sharks, a players form has no bearing on selection whatsoever :roll:

Hence his son was able to maintain a spot in the sharks team week in week out (how many NRL clubs are chasing his signature?)

Now Gower who was the form halfback of the comp gets shafted to the bench, in favour of a bloke who wasn't even the 2nd best half in Sydney let alone Australia.

 

[Special K]

Go Bailey!!!

Has anyone asked Bailey what his thoughts are on the club?

And if anyone is pissed about Kimmorley well then they should look at Hegarty and wonder how the f**k he got in :?
